ICT Unicorn Model [LuxAlgo]The ICT Unicorn Model indicator highlights the presence of "unicorn" patterns on the user's chart which is derived from the lectures of "The Inner Circle Trader" (ICT) .
Detected patterns are followed by targets with a distance controlled by the user.
🔶 USAGE
At its core, the ICT Unicorn Model relies on two popular concepts, Fair Value Gaps and Breaker Blocks. This combination highlights a future area of support/resistance.
A Bullish Unicorn Pattern consists out of:
A Lower Low (LL), followed by a Higher High (HH)
A Fair Value Gap (FVG), overlapping the established Breaker Block
A successful re-test of the FVG which confirms the pattern.
A Bearish Unicorn Pattern consists of:
A Higher High (HH), followed by a Lower Low (LL)
A Fair Value Gap (FVG), overlapping the established Breaker Block
A successful re-test of the FVG which confirms the pattern
The pattern detection depends on detected swings, which can be controlled by the Swing setting. Using higher values of this setting will return longer-term breaker blocks.
🔹 Using Risk/Reward Targets
A confirmed Unicorn pattern will show a blue ( Target ) / grey ( Stop Loss) "Risk/Reward" areas (RR).
When the Stop Loss or Target is hit, a white line is shown on the concerned side.
The Risk/Reward ratio can be adjusted in the "Targets" settings.
🔹 Trailing Stop
As seen in the previous snapshots, besides the RR areas, this indicator also includes an optional Trailing Stop .
This can be helpful to lower your risk, by exiting earlier than if you would wait until the Stop Loss is hit.
This example shows a successful bullish and bearish Unicorn Pattern . In this scenario, the Trailing Stop could be used for partial Take Profit.
The goal of this publication is to show confirmed Unicorn Patterns . To increase the chance of success, it is important to evaluate the bigger picture & use this in confluence with your price action analysis. For example, look for potential areas of liquidity, consider this pattern only during certain market sessions, avoid trading during heavy impact news, &/or incorporate other aspects of technical analysis rather than just following this pattern blindly.
🔶 DETAILS
🔹 Combine
When disabled, all potential Unicorn Patterns will delete previous unconfirmed patterns:
Enabling Combine ensures the last Unicorn Patterns in the opposite direction will remain.
While the latter bullish pattern became invalid, another one formed.
The combination of the previous bearish pattern, and looking at the big picture, the bullish pattern did not have much chance to be successful.
While disabling 'combine' helps minimize clutter, enabling this feature can give a pattern more chance to hit the SL/Target level.
🔹 Mitigated FVG
Users can determine if a pattern becomes invalid due to a mitigated FVG, causing the pattern to be deleted.
🔹 New pattern detected
When a new pattern is detected, the previous unconfirmed pattern in the same direction (bullish - bullish or bearish - bearish) will be deleted. This will always be the case, whether "Combine' is enabled or disabled.
When the previous pattern was confirmed but no SL or Target level was hit, this pattern will stop updating.
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Unicorn
Swings: This sets the length of swings, used for the underlying ZigZag and Unicorn Patterns detection.
Bull: Enable/disable Bullish patterns, and set the color of FVG box and Trailing Stop .
Bear: Enable/disable Bearish patterns, and set the color of FVG box and Trailing Stop .

Support and Resistance (MTF) | Flux Charts💎 GENERAL OVERVIEW
Introducing a groundbreaking support and resistance indicator designed to revolutionize your trading experience on TradingView! This innovative tool operates across three distinct timeframes, offering a comprehensive view of market dynamics to help you make informed trading decisions.
The indicator offers a large variety of features :
Select Up To 3 Timeframes
Select Strength Of Supports & Resistances
Select Between Zones & Lines
Show Breaks & Restests
Break & Retest Alerts
Avoid False Breaks
Inverse Color After Broken
Expand Lines & Zones
🚩UNIQUENESS
What sets this indicator apart is its ability to seamlessly integrate and analyze support and resistance levels across multiple timeframes simultaneously. By combining data from three different timeframes, this indicator provides a holistic perspective on market trends and key levels. The adaptive nature of this tool ensures a dynamic assessment of support and resistance zones, empowering traders to adapt to changing market conditions efficiently.
⚙️SETTINGS
1. General Configration
Support & Resistance Count -> Select between 1-3 support & resistance zones for each timeframe.
Pivot Range -> The pivot range is taken into calculations when finding high & low pivots in the chart. Increase if you need a more general look at the support & support zones, or decrease if you need a more detailed look.
Strength -> The strength of the support & resistance zones are determined by how many times the price touched the zone in the past. You can increase the strength up to 4.
Expand Lines & Zones -> If enabled, the support & resistance zones will be expanded to both left and right infinitely. If disabled, the support & resistance zones will be clamped between the time they are first seen, and the time they become broken.
2. Support & Resistance Zones
Enable Zones -> The support & resitsance lines will be converted to zones if enabled.
Zone Width -> The width of the zones. 1 -> %0.05, 2 -> %0.06, 3 -> %0.075.
3. Timeframes
Enable & Disable up to 3 different timeframes using the checkboxes. You can set the timeframes using the selectboxes.
4. Breaks & Retests
Show Breaks -> Points the break points with a blue label with the text "B" on it.
Show Retests -> Points the times when the support & resistance zones are being retested in the current chart.
Avoid False Breaks -> If enabled, the algorithm will try to avoid false break points by comparing the average volume of the point to a longer average volume.
Break Volume Threshold % -> If "Avoid False Breaks" option is enabled, the average volume of the break point should surpass the general average volume by this percent. Higher values mean it's less likely to be a break.
Inverse Color After Broken -> As broken support & resistance zones often become resistance & support zones respectively, if you enable this option the broken zones will inverse their color.
5. Alerts
To make the alerts work, you'll need to add an alert to the chart using the TradingView® alert feature.
Enable Retest Alerts -> You will receive alerts when restests happen on any of the support & resistance zones. "Show Retests" option needs to be enabled to get alerts of this category.
Enable Break Alerts -> You will receive alerts when breaks happen on any of the support & resistance zones.
Donchian Quest Research// =================================
Trend following strategy.
// =================================
Strategy uses two channels. One channel - for opening trades. Second channel - for closing.
Channel is similar to Donchian channel, but uses Close prices (not High/Low). That helps don't react to wicks of volatile candles (“stop hunting”). In most cases openings occur earlier than in Donchian channel. Closings occur only for real breakout.
// =================================
Strategy waits for beginning of trend - when price breakout of channel. Default length of both channels = 50 candles.
Conditions of trading:
- Open Long: If last Close = max Close for 50 closes.
- Close Long: If last Close = min Close for 50 closes.
- Open Short: If last Close = min Close for 50 closes.
- Close Short: If last Close = max Close for 50 closes.
// =================================
Color of lines:
- black - channel for opening trade.
- red - channel for closing trade.
- yellow - entry price.
- fuchsia - stoploss and breakeven.
- vertical green - go Long.
- vertical red - go Short.
- vertical gray - close in end, don't trade anymore.
// =================================
Order size calculated with ATR and volatility.
You can't trade 1 contract in BTC and 1 contract in XRP - for example. They have different price and volatility, so 1 contract BTC not equal 1 contract XRP.
Script uses universal calculation for every market. It is based on:
- Risk - USD sum you ready to loss in one trade. It calculated as percent of Equity.
- ATR indicator - measurement of volatility.
With default setting your stoploss = 0.5 percent of equity:
- If initial capital is 1000 USD and used parameter "Permit stop" - loss will be 5 USD (0.5 % of equity).
- If your Equity rises to 2000 USD and used parameter "Permit stop"- loss will be 10 USD (0.5 % of Equity).
// =================================
This Risk works only if you enable “Permit stop” parameter in Settings.
If this parameter disabled - strategy works as reversal strategy:
⁃ If close Long - channel border works as stoploss and momentarily go Short.
⁃ If close Short - channel border works as stoploss and momentarily go Long.
Channel borders changed dynamically. So sometime your loss will be greater than ‘Risk %’. Sometime - less than ‘Risk %’.
If this parameter enabled - maximum loss always equal to 'Risk %'. This parameter also include breakeven: if profit % = Risk %, then move stoploss to entry price.
// =================================
Like all trend following strategies - it works only in trend conditions. If no trend - slowly bleeding. There is no special additional indicator to filter trend/notrend. You need to trade every signal of strategy.
Strategy gives many losses:
⁃ 30 % of trades will close with profit.
⁃ 70 % of trades will close with loss.
⁃ But profit from 30% will be much greater than loss from 70 %.
Your task - patiently wait for it and don't use risky setting for position sizing.
// =================================
Recommended timeframe - Daily.
// =================================
Trend can vary in lengths. Selecting length of channels determine which trend you will be hunting:
⁃ 20/10 - from several days to several weeks.
⁃ 20/20 or 50/20 - from several weeks to several months.
⁃ 50/50 or 100/50 or 100/100 - from several months to several years.
// =================================
Inputs (Settings):
- Length: length of channel for trade opening/closing. You can choose 20/10, 20/20, 50/20, 50/50, 100/50, 100/100. Default value: 50/50.
- Permit Long / Permit short: Longs are most profitable for this strategy. You can disable Shorts and enable Longs only. Default value: permit all directions.
- Risk % of Equity: for position sizing used Equity percent. Don't use values greater than 5 % - it's risky. Default value: 0.5%.
⁃ ATR multiplier: this multiplier moves stoploss up or down. Big multiplier = small size of order, small profit, stoploss far from entry, low chance of stoploss. Small multiplier = big size of order, big profit, stop near entry, high chance of stoploss. Default value: 2.
- ATR length: number of candles to calculate ATR indicator. It used for order size and stoploss. Default value: 20.
- Close in end - to close active trade in the end (and don't trade anymore) or leave it open. You can see difference in Strategy Tester. Default value: don’t close.
- Permit stop: use stop or go reversal. Default value: without stop, reversal strategy.
// =================================
Properties (Settings):
- Initial capital - 1000 USD.
- Script don't uses 'Order size' - you need to change 'Risk %' in Inputs instead.
- Script don't uses 'Pyramiding'.
- 'Commission' 0.055 % and 'Slippage' 0 - this parameters are for crypto exchanges with perpetual contracts (for example Bybit). If use on other markets - set it accordingly to your exchange parameters.
// =================================
Big dataset used for chart - 'BITCOIN ALL TIME HISTORY INDEX'. It gives enough trades to understand logic of script. It have several good trends.
// =================================
Trend Lines [LuxAlgo]Our new "Trend Lines" indicator detects and highlights relevant trendlines on the user chart while keeping it free of as much clutter as possible.
The indicator is thought for real-time usage and includes several filters as well as the ability to estimate trendline angles.
🔶 USAGE
Trendlines can act as support/resistance, with a higher number of tests indicating a more significant support/resistance role.
A broken TrendLine can be indicative of a potential trend reversal. The script highlights breaks with a label.
Users can additionally filter trendlines, only showing trendlines whose angles fall within a user set range:
This allows for the removal of potential clutter from the chart but also helps keep steeper or more horizontal trendlines.
🔶 DETAILS
When a swing (pivot point) is found, a Trendline is drawn when certain conditions are fulfilled.
An essential condition is that a Bearish Trendline (red) always occurs on a lower high, while a Bullish Trendline (blue) occurs on a higher low.
Our implementation will first show an initial dotted-styled TrendLine on confirmation, after which a solid-styled secondary TrendLine will develop. The latter will be used for the real-time detection of breaks at that line:
Furthermore, the script allows you to add more conditions:
🔹 Length (Swings)
A swing develops when a high/low is the highest/lowest against x highs/lows on the left AND right of that bar. x can be set by "Length" in settings.
The following images clarify this. The script confirms a swing where the yellow flag is shown; the high (here visualized with a purple label) is the highest point against x bars left and right of that point.
At that moment, this swing is checked against the previous swing. If all conditions are fulfilled, an initial TrendLine is drawn on confirmation.
After that point, a secondary thicker solid line is seen which keeps progressing bar after bar, until:
• a new TrendLine is formed
• the TrendLine is broken
🔹 Breaks between Swings
Once there is confirmation that a TrendLine can be drawn, the script allows you to filter for breakthroughs on that line. This can be set with "Check breaks between"
Disabled : the initial TrendLine is allowed to be pierced:
Check breaks between point A - point B : no breaks are allowed between both Swing points:
Point A - Current bar : no breaks are allowed between the first Swing point and the point of confirmation ('current' bar):
🔹 TrendLine breaks
As mentioned, the secondary TrendLine (solid line) progresses bar after bar until a new TrendLine is formed or the TrendLine is broken. When a TrendLine is broken, the TrendLine stops progressing, but if there isn't a new TrendLine and price return back, the TrendLine will re-appear, potentially giving several signals when the TrendLine is broken again.
Minimal bars allow you to regulate the amount of signals when the TrendLine is broken.
-> The secondary TrendLine must be uninterrupted for at least x bars before a potential break can be considered.
The following example shows 1 signal against 3 by adjusting this setting from 2 to 5:
🔹 Angles
Angles should normally be calculated when the units of the X and Y axis are the same. However, on our charts, the unit of the X-axis is bar_index (bars), and on the Y-axis the unit is price (¥, €, £, $,...).
It is not easy to normalize and create reasonably valid angles. Often certain angle calculations can differ through price changes or volatility.
Our calculate_slope() function tries to make corresponding angles through all bars.
We do this by calculating the difference between the highest/lowest price values in a certain bar range. The bar range is our X-axis, and the price difference is our Y-axis.
Zooming in/out will not change the amount of bars or the price. Since it does change our view on the chart, and thereby how we see the angles, we have included a setting where you can personalize the ratio between X and Y-axis (Angles -> Ratio X-Y axis).
Settings: Angles - Ratio X-Y axis:
🔶 SETTINGS
🔹 Swings
Length: Lookback period for the detection of swing points.
🔹 Trendline validation
Check breaks between :
Disabled : the initial TrendLine is allowed to be pierced
Check breaks between point A - point B : no breaks are allowed between both Swing points
Point A - Current bar : no breaks are allowed between the first Swing point and the point of confirmation ('current' bar)
Source (breaks) : Source which invalidates TrendLine, default: close
🔹 TrendLine breaks
Minimal bars : The secondary TrendLine must be uninterrupted for at least x bars before a potential break can be considered.
🔹 Angles
Show : Toggle labels.
Ratio X-Y axis : Every user has his preferences regarding zoom, chart layout,...
If the shown angles are not according to your expectations, you can adjust this number.
Only TrendLine between : Only allow TrendLines between the minimum and maximum degrees. Set only the minimal and maximum values above 0.
Encapsulation BoxThe “Encapsulation Box” indicator is designed to locate areas of the chart where the highs and lows of candlesticks are “embedded” or enclosed within the body of a previous candlestick. This setup indicates a significant contraction in the market and can provide important trading signals. Here's how it works in more detail:
Detecting contraction: The indicator looks for situations where the price range of the candles is very narrow, i.e. when subsequent candles have highs and lows that are contained within the range of a previous candle. This condition indicates a contraction in the market before a possible directional move.
When a contraction is detected, the indicator draws a rectangle around the area where the highs and lows of the candles are embedded. The rectangle has its upper vertex corresponding to the maximum of the candles involved and its lower vertex corresponding to the minimum. The width of the rectangle is defined by can be customized by the user.
A key feature of this indicator is the horizontal line drawn outside the rectangle. This line is positioned in the middle of the rectangle and represents 50% of the range of the rectangle itself. This line acts as a significant support or resistance level depending on the direction the contraction breaks.
The indicator can generate buy or sell signals when a break in the rectangle or horizontal line occurs. For example, if the price breaks above the rectangle and the horizontal line, it could generate a buy signal, indicating a possible uptrend. Conversely, if the price breaks below the rectangle and the horizontal line, it could generate a sell signal, indicating a possible downtrend.
Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection█ OVERVIEW
The "Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection" indicator is a powerful tool designed to help traders identify potential price breakouts and pivot levels on daily charts. This indicator calculates and displays daily pivot points along with breakout lines that are adjusted to provide a certain level of protection against fakeouts, which are false price movements that can mislead traders.
█ FEATURES
• Pivot Timeframe Selection: You can choose the timeframe for the pivot calculations. The default is set to daily (D), but you have the flexibility to select other timeframes as well.
• Fakeout Protection: A percentage-based parameter allows you to define the amount of protection you want against fakeouts. This helps filter out potentially unreliable breakouts.
• Bullish and Bearish Signals: The indicator distinguishes between bullish and bearish conditions by comparing the closing price to the daily high and low.
• Breakout Signals: Triangular symbols (upward and downward) appear below and above bars to signal potential breakout points. These are based on the closing price crossing the adjusted breakout lines.
• Visual Representation: Pivot points, daily high, and daily low are plotted on the chart, with distinctive line styles and colors for easy identification.
• Background Highlighting: The background color of the chart changes when a new period begins, helping you quickly recognize the start of a new trading day.
• Color-Coded Zones: The indicator colors the background around the closing price differently based on whether the market is bullish (green) or bearish (red).
█ HOW TO USE
1 — Apply the "Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection" indicator to your TradingView chart.
2 — Customize the parameters like pivot timeframe and fakeout protection percentage according to your trading preferences.
3 — Watch for the triangular breakout symbols that appear above and below bars, indicating potential breakout points.
4 — Keep an eye on the pivot points, daily high, and daily low lines to understand price levels relevant to the current trading day.
5 — Use the background color changes to quickly identify the beginning of a new trading day and any potential shifts in market sentiment.
Note:
• This indicator is designed for daily charts but can be adjusted to work with other timeframes as well.
• Be cautious of relying solely on breakout signals; consider using additional technical and fundamental analysis for confirmation.
Start integrating the "Daily Pivots with Fakeout Protection" indicator into your trading strategy to enhance your ability to identify breakouts and pivot levels more effectively.
Dynamic Levels Breakouts [Angel Algo]INTRODUCTION
The Dynamic Levels Breakouts indicator is a powerful tool designed to identify dynamic support and resistance levels in the price action. It plots these levels on the chart and provides visual signals for bullish and bearish breakouts.
FEATURES
1. Dynamic Support and Resistance Levels.
The indicator calculates the maximum (resistance) and minimum (support) price levels within the defined rolling window. The highest high and lowest low are used to identify dynamic resistance and support levels, respectively.
2. Coloring Conditions
The indicator uses conditional coloring to highlight potential support and resistance levels. When a significant level is detected, it will be colored with a transparent overlay. Red color indicates potential resistance (max_level), and green color indicates potential support (min_level).
3. Bullish and Bearish Breakouts
The indicator also identifies potential bullish and bearish breakouts from the dynamic levels. A bullish breakout occurs when the closing price crosses above the dynamic resistance level (max_level). A bearish breakout occurs when the closing price crosses below the dynamic support level (min_level). The breakout signals are marked with arrow symbols (▲ for bullish and ▼ for bearish) below and above the respective bars.
4. Market Regime
To prevent multiple signals within a short period, the indicator considers the current market regime. If a bullish breakout has occurred recently, it will not generate a new bullish signal until a bearish breakout occurs, and vice versa.
HOW TO USE
The Dynamic Levels Breakouts indicator can be used to identify potential breakout trading opportunities. A bullish breakout signal (▲) suggests a potential long entry or an increase in buying pressure. A bearish breakout signal (▼) indicates a potential short entry or an increase in selling pressure. Traders can use these signals as a reference and combine them with other technical analysis tools and strategies for confirmation.
SETTINGS
Period (length): The user can adjust the "Period" input to define the rolling window for calculating the maximum and minimum price levels. The default value is 20, but it can be set anywhere between 2 and 30. A higher value may yield more significant levels but can also result in delayed signals
Psychological levels (Bank levels) PsychoLevels v3 - TartigradiaPsychological levels (Bank levels) plots the closest "round" price levels above and below current price, based on neuroscience research of how humans intuitively calculate in logarithms.
Psychological levels, also called bank levels, are "round" price numbers, by truncating after the nth leftmost digits, around which price often experience resistance or support, because traders and investors tend to set orders around these round numbers.
The calculation done here is fully automatic and dynamic, contrary to other similar scripts, this one uses a mathematical calculation that extracts the 1, 2 or 3 leftmost digits and calculate the previous and next level by incrementing/decrementing these digits. This means it works for any symbol under any price range.
This approach is based on neuroscience research, which found that human brains intuitively approximate numbers on a logarithmic scale, adults and children alike, and similarly to macaques, for more info see Numerical Cognition , Weber-Fechner Law , Zipf law .
For example, if price is at 0.0421, the next major price level is 0.05 and medium one is 0.043. For another asset currently priced at 19354, the next and previous major price levels are 20000 and 10000 respectively, and the next/previous medium levels are 20000 and 19000, and the next/previous weak levels are 19400 and 19300.
IMPORTANT: Please enable "Scale price chart only" in the chart's scale's options, as otherwise major levels may make the chart's scale very small and hard to read.
How it works
At any time, there are 3 levels of strength (1 leftmost digit, 2 leftmost digits, 3 leftmost digits) represented by different sizes, and 3 directional levels for each of these strengths (level above, level below, and half-level) represented by different colors and positions, around current price.
Indeed, contrary to other similar price levels scripts, we do not plot ALL price levels at all times, because otherwise the chart becomes wayyy too cluttered, and also it's highly processing intensive to plot so many lines. So we here use a dynamical approach: we plot only the relevant levels, the closest ones according to current price.
Hence, when a level disappears, it does not mean that it does not exist anymore, but simply that we are not drawing it right now because it is not pertinent for the current price movement (ie, too far away).
Breakouts can be detected in two different ways depending on if SMA is set to a value higher than 1 or not: if SMA == 1, then there is no smoothing, so the levels adapt instantaneously to the current price, so to detect breakout, you should refer to the levels at the previous tick and whether they were broken by current tick's price; if SMA > 1, then there is some smoothing, and so the levels will stay in-place even if there is a breakout, so it's easier to spot breakouts without having to look at the previous ticks, but on the other hand you won't see the new levels for the new price range until after a few more ticks for the smoothing window to adapt. Hence, by default, smoothing is disabled, so that you can see the currently pertinent levels at all time, even right after or during a breakout.
By default, the strong above level is in green, strong below level is in red, medium above level is in blue, medium below level is in yellow, and weak levels aren't displayed but can be. Half levels are also displayed, in a darker color. Strong levels are increments of the first leftmost digit (eg, 10000 to 20000), medium levels are increments of the second leftmost digit (eg, 19000 to 20000), and weak levels of the third leftmost digit (eg, 19100 to 19200). Instead of plotting all the psychological levels all at once as a grid, which makes the chart unintelligible, here the levels adapt dynamically around the current price, so that they show the above/below/half levels relatively to the current price.
Indeed, "half-levels" are also displayed (eg, medium level can also display 19500 instead of only 19000 or 20000). This was made because otherwise the gap between two levels was too big, especially for the strongest levels (eg, there was no major level between 20000 and 30000, but with a half-step we also get a half-level at 25000, and empirically price tends to respect these half levels - I also tried quarter levels but empirically the results were not good). In addition to this hard-coded half-level, you can also create more subdivisions (eg, quarter levels) by setting the simple moving average to a value higher than 1.
The script can be made to run on the daily timeframe whatever the current chart's timeframe is, to reduce the variability in levels, to make it less noisy than intraday price movement. But by default, the chart resolution is used, because I empirically found that the levels found with this indicator work on all time resolutions quite well.
The step can be adjusted to increase the gap between levels, eg, if you want to display one every 2 levels then input step = 2 (eg, 22000, 24000, 26000, etc), or if you want to display quarter levels, input 0.25 (eg, 22000, 22250, 22500, etc). The default values should fit most use cases and cover most psychological levels.
How to read
Focust first on bigger dotted levels, they are stronger and more likely to cause a rebound or a major event or price to stay at this level.
Remember that it's not enough to just look at levels, the context is important, because levels have various effects depending on current price movement: if price is above a level, the level is a support on which price can rebound; if price is below a level, the level is a resistance on which price can rebound (or break); and finally sometimes price also stays hovering around a level for some time.
Levels closer to 9 are less weaker, and levels closer to 0 are stronger, according to Zipf law. This is now reflected since v3 in the transparency, levels that are closer to 9 will be more transparent.
The switch in color for the same level illustrates how a level switches from being a support to a resistance and inversely. Eg, if a major level turns from green to red, then it changed from being a resistance (above) to a support (below).
As is well known in trading, longer standing levels are stronger. This indicator provides a direct illustration: in practice, the number of consecutive dots on the same line influences the strength of the level: the longer the chain of dots, the more you can expect this price level to be significant. The length does not mean the level will necessarily hold, but that other traders are likely to monitor if it holds, and if not then price will break down. Hence, longer levels are good spots to place stop losses, or to enter trades depending on your strategy. In general, a single dot is not enough to consider a level significant, but 2 or more is a good enough level, and 10+ is a strong level. Intuitively, this makes sense, and is what pro traders do: the longer a level is tested, the stronger it is. This indicator can visually represent this intuition and allows to use it as a more systematic trading signal.
Motivation
I initially made the first version of the PsychoLevels indicator mainly to train with PineScript, but I found it surprisingly accurate to define levels that are respected by price movements. So I guess it can be useful for new traders and experienced traders alike, as it's easy to forget that psychological levels can often be as strong if not stronger than technical levels. It can also be used to quickly screen other minor assets for trading opportunities. For example, a hybrid strategy would be to manually define levels on BTCUSD but using this script to automatically define levels in crypto altcoins and quickly screen them for a trade opportunity that can be greater than with BTCUSD but with the same trend.
Personally, although initially I did not believe an automated tool would work well for this purpose, I could now empirically verify that it is quite reliable for the purpose of detecting levels, and so I use it all the time to find the levels automatically and help me monitor them like a hawk, so that I only have to draw uber major levels, the ones that last between cycles and that are hard to autodetect, but otherwise all daily/weekly levels are usually covered. However, trendlines must still be drawn manually or with another indicator (but note that up to now I have found none that worked well enough), as PsychoLevels only draws levels (ie, horizontal lines, not oblique ones!).
Differences with the previous version PsychoLevels v2
price levels now have a transparency according to their importance for the human brain: numbers closer to 9 are weaker, and numbers closer to 0 are stronger and represent a major psychological threshold (eg, that's why prices marked as $9.99 sell better than $10.00). This option can be disabled to get the exact same behavior as v2.
modularized and typed code
PsychoLevels v2 can be found here:
Market Breadth: Trends & BreakoutsVisualize the percentage of stocks in an index participating in trends and breakouts/breakdowns.
The default data source is the S & P 500: the percent of stocks above/below the 200 and 50 day moving averages, and the percentage of stocks making new 52 week breakouts/breakdowns. You can pick new data sources in the settings.
The blue band represents the percentage of stocks above/below the 200 day moving average. (It's always 100% in width, unlike say Bollinger bands). The thin blue lines are the same but for the 50 day moving average. The red and green areas represent the percentage of stocks making new 52 week highs/lows.
In the example chart you can see a divergence between the market as a whole which continues up and to the right throughout 2021, where as fewer and fewer stocks were above their own 200 day moving average, causing the blue band to trend down. Before the market turns beginning 2022 you can see more stocks making new 52 week lows, even as other stocks make 52 week highs. After the market tops, the percentage of 52 week lows intensifies and the percentage of stocks below their 200 day moving average is already over 50%.
Multi Time Frame Candles with Volume Info / 3DHello Traders,
This is my second Multi Time Frame Candles script but with this new one, you will have some new features such volume info, remaining time to close of higher time frame candle and also developed using new features of Pine such array of lines. also I tried to make it 3D for better visualization ;) also it shows new highs/lows / breakouts.
I tried to make many things optional, so you can change almost everything using options.
What you can change using options:
- Higher time frame
- Number of Candles
- Candle Colors Up/Down
- Wick Color
- Volume colors Up/Down
- Text color of Remaining Time
- Shadow Color
- Background color
- Start bar of the candles (so you can see many higher times frame candles in same window)
- 3D effect, by default it's enables but you can disable 3D view
Lets see some examples:
Remaining time:
Breakouts:

[blackcat] L2 Swing Oscillator Swing MeterLevel: 2
Background
Swing trading is a type of trading aimed at making short to medium term profits from a trading pair over a period of a few days to several weeks. Swing traders mainly use technical analysis to look for trading opportunities. In addition to analyzing price trends and patterns, these traders can also use fundamental analysis.
Function
L2 Swing Oscillator Swing Meter is an oscillator based on breakouts. Another important feature of it is the swing meter, which confirms the top or bottom's confidence level with different color candles. The higher of the candles stack up, the higher confidence level is indicated.
Key Signal
absolutebot ---> absolute bottom with very high confidence level
ltbot ---> long term bottom with high confidence level
mtbot ---> middle term bottom with moderate confidence level
stbot ---> short term bottom with low confidence level
absolutetop ---> absolute top with very high confidence level
lttop ---> long term top with high confidence level
mttop ---> middle term top with moderate confidence level
sttop ---> short term top with low confidence level
fastline ---> oscillator fast line
slowline ---> oscillator slow line
Pros and Cons
Pros:
1. reconfigurable swing oscillator based on breakouts
2. swing meter can confirm/validate the bottom and top signal
Cons:
1. not appliable with trading pairs without volume information
2. small time frame may not trigger swing meter function
Remarks
This is a simple but very comprehensive technical indicator
Readme
In real life, I am a prolific inventor. I have successfully applied for more than 60 international and regional patents in the past 12 years. But in the past two years or so, I have tried to transfer my creativity to the development of trading strategies. Tradingview is the ideal platform for me. I am selecting and contributing some of the hundreds of scripts to publish in Tradingview community. Welcome everyone to interact with me to discuss these interesting pine scripts.
The scripts posted are categorized into 5 levels according to my efforts or manhours put into these works.
Level 1 : interesting script snippets or distinctive improvement from classic indicators or strategy. Level 1 scripts can usually appear in more complex indicators as a function module or element.
Level 2 : composite indicator/strategy. By selecting or combining several independent or dependent functions or sub indicators in proper way, the composite script exhibits a resonance phenomenon which can filter out noise or fake trading signal to enhance trading confidence level.
Level 3 : comprehensive indicator/strategy. They are simple trading systems based on my strategies. They are commonly containing several or all of entry signal, close signal, stop loss, take profit, re-entry, risk management, and position sizing techniques. Even some interesting fundamental and mass psychological aspects are incorporated.
Level 4 : script snippets or functions that do not disclose source code. Interesting element that can reveal market laws and work as raw material for indicators and strategies. If you find Level 1~2 scripts are helpful, Level 4 is a private version that took me far more efforts to develop.
Level 5 : indicator/strategy that do not disclose source code. private version of Level 3 script with my accumulated script processing skills or a large number of custom functions. I had a private function library built in past two years. Level 5 scripts use many of them to achieve private trading strategy.
Line breakI decided to help TradingView programmers and wrote code that converts a standard candles / bars to a line break chart. The built-in linebreak() and security() functions for constructing a Linear Break chart are bad, the chart is not built correctly, and does not correspond to the Line Breakout chart built into TradingView. I’m talking about simulating the Linear Break lines using the plotcandle() annotation, because these are the same candles without shadows. When you try to use the market simulator, when the gaps are turned on in the security() function, nothing is added to the chart, and when turned off, a completely different line break chart is drawn. Do not try to write strategies based on the built-in linebreak() function! The developers write in the manual: "Please note that you cannot plot Line Break boxes from Pine script exactly as they look. You can only get a series of numbers similar to OHLC values for Line Break charts and use them in your algorithms." However, it is possible to build a “Linear Breakthrough” chart exactly like the “Linear Breakthrough" chart built into TradingView. Personally, I had enough Pine Script functionality.
For a complete understanding of how such a graph is built, you can refer to Steve Nison's book “BEYOND JAPANESE CANDLES” and see the instructions for creating a “Three-Line Breakthrough” chart (the number of lines for a breakthrough is three):
Rule 1: if today's price is above the base price (closing the first candle), draw a white line from the base price to the new maximum price (before closing).
or Rule 2: if today's price is below the base price, draw a black line from the base price to the new low of prices (before closing).
Rule 3: if today's price is no different from the base, do not draw any line.
Rule 4: if today's price rises above the maximum of the first line, shift to the column to the right and draw a new white line from the previous maximum to the new maximum of prices.
Rule 5: if the price is below the low of the first line, move one column to the right and draw a new black line down from the previous low to the new low of prices.
Rule 6: if the price is kept in the range of the first line, nothing is applied to the chart.
Rule 7: if the market reaches a new maximum, surpassing the maximum of previous lines, move to the column to the right and draw a new white line up to a new maximum.
Rule 8: if today's price is below the low of previous lines (i.e. there is a new low), move to the right column and draw a new black line down to a new low.
Rule 9: if the price is in the range of the first two lines, nothing is applied to the chart.
Rule 10: if there is a series of three white lines, a new white line is drawn when a new maximum is reached (even if it is only one tick higher than the old one). Under the same conditions, for drawing a black reversal line, the price should fall below the minimum of the series of the last three white lines. Such a black line is called a black reversal line. It runs from the base of the highest white line to a new low of price.
Rule 11: if there is a series of three black lines, a new black line is drawn when a new minimum is reached. Under the same conditions, for drawing a white line, called a white reversal line, the price must exceed the maximum of the previous three black lines. This line is drawn from the top of the lowest black line to a new high of the price.
So, the script was not small, but the idea is extremely simple: if you need to break n lines to build a line, then among these n lines (or less, if this is the beginning of the chart), the maximum or minimum of closures and openings will be searched. If the current candles closed above or below these highs or lows, then a new line is added to the chart on the current candles (trend or breakout). According to my observations, this script draws a chart that is completely identical to the Line Breakout chart built into TradingView, but of course with gaps, as there is time in the candles / bar chart. I stuffed all the logic into a wrapper in the form of the get_linebreak() function, which returns a tuple of OHLC values. And these series with the help of the plotcandle() annotation can be converted to the "Linear Breakthrough" chart. I also want to note that with a large number of candles on the chart, outrages about the buffer size uncertainty are heard from the TradingView black box. Because of this, in the annotation study() set the value to the max_bars_back parameter.
In general, use it (for example, to write strategies)!
52 Week High/Low to YesterdayThis script adds the 52 weeks (one year) high/low to the chart but it wouldn't update the value on the current trading day, so that it would remain at the same level for the whole trading day. It can come really handy for day trading the day of the 52 weeks high/low breakout/breakdown.
Volume w/ Threshold and Editable MA PeriodJust a simple script that tweaks the original Volume one.
The purpose is creating a threshold which we'll use to put an alert on. This way, we can be notified whether Volume pumps.
Useful for spotting breakouts, breakdowns and pumps.
Threshold is simply a coeff * ma(volume,period). Coeff is editable as well.
Hope this helps!
Low Volatility Breakout Detector)This indicator is designed to visually identify potential breakouts from consolidation during periods of low volatility. It is based on classic Bollinger Bands and relative volume. Its primary purpose is not to generate buy or sell signals but to assist in spotting moments when the market exits a stagnation phase.
Arrows appear only when the price breaks above the upper or below the lower Bollinger Band, the band width is below a specified threshold (expressed in percentage), and volume is above its moving average multiplied by a chosen multiplier (default is 1). This combination may indicate the start of a new impulse following a period of low activity.
The chart background during low volatility is colored based on volume strength—the lower the volume during stagnation, the less transparent the background. This helps quickly spot unusual market behavior under seemingly calm conditions. The background opacity is dynamically scaled relative to the range of volumes over a selected period, which can be set manually (default is 50 bars).
The indicator works best in classic horizontal consolidations, where price moves within a narrow range and volatility and volume clearly decline. It is not intended to detect breakouts from formations such as triangles or wedges, which may not always exhibit low volatility relative to Bollinger Bands.
Settings allow you to adjust:
Bollinger Band length and multiplier,
Volatility threshold (in %),
Background and arrow colors,
Volume moving average length and multiplier,
Bar range used for background opacity scaling.
Note: For reliable results, it’s advisable to tailor the volatility threshold and volume/background ranges to the specific market and timeframe, as different instruments have distinct dynamics. If you want the background color to closely match the color of breakout arrows, you should set the same volume analysis period as the volume moving average length.
Additional note: To achieve a cleaner chart and focus solely on breakout signals, you can disable the background and Bollinger Bands display in the settings. This will leave only the breakout arrows visible on the chart, providing a clearer and more readable market picture.
ZigZag ProZigZag Pro is a precise market structure indicator that automatically detects two independent ZigZag patterns and highlights breakouts whenever significant highs or lows are breached.
The indicator calculates two separate ZigZag structures in real time. ZigZag1 captures the broader market swings and is ideal for trend or swing trading. ZigZag2 is optional and reacts more quickly – perfect for intraday or scalping setups. Both layers are fully customizable in terms of depth, color, and line width.
What makes this tool especially useful: whenever a previous swing high (for long trades) or swing low (for short trades) is broken, the indicator draws a horizontal breakout line on the chart. This makes it easy to spot structural breakouts and take advantage of potential momentum moves.
ZigZag Pro is designed for traders who rely on clean, rule-based market structure — whether you're trading classic breakouts, smart money concepts, or simply want a clearer view of trend shifts. The visuals are minimal, responsive, and suitable for any timeframe.

Session Breakouts & Trend Indicator# Session Breakouts & Trend Indicator
This indicator identifies high-probability trading opportunities by tracking key intraday sessions and their breakouts while aligning them with the overall market trend direction.
## What Makes This Indicator Unique
Unlike standard breakout indicators that only identify when price crosses a threshold, this indicator:
- Dynamically identifies and tracks important daily sessions (default: AM 09:00-10:00 and PM 15:00-16:00)
- Determines trend direction using a triple EMA system (20/50/200)
- Shows when breakouts align with the overall trend (higher probability setups)
- Provides visual confirmation with session ranges, breakout levels, and background highlighting
- Includes a comprehensive information panel showing trend/session alignment
## How It Works
The indicator tracks two important daily sessions:
1. **AM Session**: Typically the first hour of trading (default: 09:00-10:00)
2. **PM Session**: Typically the last hour of trading (default: 15:00-16:00)
For each session, it:
- Marks the high and low range
- Establishes breakout levels above/below these ranges
- Detects when price breaks beyond these levels
- Determines if the breakout aligns with the prevailing trend
The trend is calculated using three EMAs (20, 50, 200) for reliable trend identification.
## How To Use
1. Apply the indicator to your chart (works best on 5-minute timeframes)
2. Adjust session times to match your trading schedule if needed
3. Watch for breakouts above session highs (bullish) or below session lows (bearish)
4. Check the information panel to see if the breakout aligns with the trend
5. Enter trades in the direction of trend-aligned breakouts for higher probability setups
6. Set stop losses below the opposite side of the session range
## Settings
- **Session Times**: Customize AM and PM session times
- **EMA Lengths**: Adjust trend determination sensitivity
- **Visualization Options**: Toggle display of sessions, breakouts, and VWAP
- **Alert Settings**: Configure alerts for breakouts and trend-aligned conditions
This indicator is valuable for day traders and swing traders looking for objective entry points with higher probability of success.
HMA Breakdown [NLR]Hull Moving Average (HMA) is a great trend-following tool — it's smooth, fast, and more responsive than traditional MAs like EMA or SMA. But the problem?
Sometimes it gives signals that look sharp but are misleading — especially in noisy markets or when the price is chopping around.
This script breaks down the inner mechanics of the HMA to give you more context:
Are the inputs to HMA actually diverging?
Is there momentum behind the move?
Is this trend about to reverse or just a pullback?
By plotting the components of HMA — and layering signal bands, color logic, and optional trend overlays — it gives you a visual breakdown of what's really going on under the hood.
What this indicator shows
HMA Trend (Main Line)
The Hull Moving Average (HMA) is plotted in bold, colored red or green based on internal conditions (not just price slope).
WMA Components (Fast & Slow)
Shows the two WMAs used inside the HMA calculation:
WMA Half (faster) — reacts quickly to price
WMA Full (slower) — smoother, less reactive
Their difference and crossover gives you clues on whether momentum is building or fading.
Signal & Band Structure
A calculated upper band and lower band are used to track when HMA is leading or lagging momentum.
When the HMA is below the band, trend may be weakening - this helps you filter false signals.
TMA Candle (Optional Visual)
A synthetic candle shows whether the smoothed average is rising or falling compared to a few candles back.
This is a simple visual cue to spot inflection points in the trend.
EMA Trend Overlay (Optional)
A pair of short-term EMAs built on a smoothed source helps you catch micro-trends or align your entries with the bigger trend.
Can act as an early heads-up or a trend confirmation layer.
What problem it solves
Noisy Signals: Helps filter out weak or fake trend signals often seen in HMA-only systems.
Visual Breakdown: Lets you see how each component of the HMA is behaving — so you’re not flying blind.
Momentum Confirmation: Adds layered confirmation using fast-vs-slow WMA cross, signal bands, and mini trend overlays.
Best Used For:
Trend-following traders who use HMA or WMA strategies
Filtering entries/exits in momentum-based systems
Visually confirming when a trend is real vs fake
Failed Breakout DetectionThis indicator is a reverse-engineered copy of the FBD Detection indicator published by xfuturesgod. The original indicator aimed at detecting "Failed Breakdowns". This version tracks the opposite signals, "Failed Breakouts". It was coded with the ES Futures 15 minute chart in mind but may be useful on other instruments and time frames.
The original description, with terminology reversed to explain this version:
'Failed Breakouts' are a popular set up for short entries.
In short, the set up requires:
1) A significant high is made ('initial high')
2) Initial high is undercut with a new high
3) Price action then 'reclaims' the initial high by moving +8-10 points from the initial high
This script aims at detecting such set ups. It was coded with the ES Futures 15 minute chart in mind but may be useful on other instruments and time frames.
Business Logic:
1) Uses pivot highs to detect 'significant' initial highs
2) Uses amplitude threshold to detect a new high above the initial high; used /u/ben_zen script for this
3) Looks for a valid reclaim - a red candle that occurs within 10 bars of the new high
4) Price must reclaim at least 8 points for the set up to be valid
5) If a signal is detected, the initial high value (pivot high) is stored in array that prevents duplicate signals from being generated.
6) FBO Signal is plotted on the chart with "X"
7) Pivot high detection is plotted on the chart with "P" and a label
8) New highs are plotted on the chart with a red triangle
Notes:
User input
- My preference is to use the defaults as is, but as always feel free to experiment
- Can modify pivot length but in my experience 10/10 work best for pivot highs
- New high detection - 55 bars and 0.05 amplitude work well based on visual checks of signals
- Can modify the number of points needed to reclaim a high, and the # of bars limit over which this must occur.
Alerts:
- Alerts are available for detection of new highs and detection of failed breakouts
- Alerts are also available for these signals but only during 7:30PM-4PM EST - 'prime time' US trading hours
Limitations:
- Current version of the script only compares new highs to the most recent pivot high, does not look at anything prior to that
- Best used as a discretionary signal
02 SMC + BB Breakout (Improved)This strategy combines Smart Money Concepts (SMC) with Bollinger Band breakouts to identify potential trading opportunities. SMC focuses on identifying key price levels and market structure shifts, while Bollinger Bands help pinpoint overbought/oversold conditions and potential breakout points. The strategy also incorporates higher timeframe trend confirmation to filter out trades that go against the prevailing trend.
Key Components:
Bollinger Bands:
Calculated using a Simple Moving Average (SMA) of the closing price and a standard deviation multiplier.
The strategy uses the upper and lower bands to identify potential breakout points.
The SMA (basis) acts as a centerline and potential support/resistance level.
The fill between the upper and lower bands can be toggled by the user.
Higher Timeframe Trend Confirmation:
The strategy allows for optional confirmation of the current trend using a higher timeframe (e.g., daily).
It calculates the SMA of the higher timeframe's closing prices.
A bullish trend is confirmed if the higher timeframe's closing price is above its SMA.
This helps filter out trades that go against the prevailing long-term trend.
Smart Money Concepts (SMC):
Order Blocks:
Simplified as recent price clusters, identified by the highest high and lowest low over a specified lookback period.
These levels are considered potential areas of support or resistance.
Liquidity Zones (Swing Highs/Lows):
Identified by recent swing highs and lows, indicating areas where liquidity may be present.
The Swing highs and lows are calculated based on user defined lookback periods.
Market Structure Shift (MSS):
Identifies potential changes in market structure.
A bullish MSS occurs when the closing price breaks above a previous swing high.
A bearish MSS occurs when the closing price breaks below a previous swing low.
The swing high and low values used for the MSS are calculated based on the user defined swing length.
Entry Conditions:
Long Entry:
The closing price crosses above the upper Bollinger Band.
If higher timeframe confirmation is enabled, the higher timeframe trend must be bullish.
A bullish MSS must have occurred.
Short Entry:
The closing price crosses below the lower Bollinger Band.
If higher timeframe confirmation is enabled, the higher timeframe trend must be bearish.
A bearish MSS must have occurred.
Exit Conditions:
Long Exit:
The closing price crosses below the Bollinger Band basis.
Or the Closing price falls below 99% of the order block low.
Short Exit:
The closing price crosses above the Bollinger Band basis.
Or the closing price rises above 101% of the order block high.
Position Sizing:
The strategy calculates the position size based on a fixed percentage (5%) of the strategy's equity.
This helps manage risk by limiting the potential loss per trade.
Visualizations:
Bollinger Bands (upper, lower, and basis) are plotted on the chart.
SMC elements (order blocks, swing highs/lows) are plotted as lines, with user-adjustable visibility.
Entry and exit signals are plotted as shapes on the chart.
The Bollinger band fill opacity is adjustable by the user.
Trading Logic:
The strategy aims to capitalize on Bollinger Band breakouts that are confirmed by SMC signals and higher timeframe trend. It looks for breakouts that align with potential market structure shifts and key price levels (order blocks, swing highs/lows). The higher timeframe filter helps avoid trades that go against the overall trend.
In essence, the strategy attempts to identify high-probability breakout trades by combining momentum (Bollinger Bands) with structural analysis (SMC) and trend confirmation.
Key User-Adjustable Parameters:
Bollinger Bands Length
Standard Deviation Multiplier
Higher Timeframe
Higher Timeframe Confirmation (on/off)
SMC Elements Visibility (on/off)
Order block lookback length.
Swing lookback length.
Bollinger band fill opacity.
This detailed description should provide a comprehensive understanding of the strategy's logic and components.

Support & Resistance with RSI BreakoutsThe script is a TradingView Pine Script (v5) indicator that identifies support and resistance levels using RSI (Relative Strength Index) breakouts. Here’s a breakdown of what it does:
Features:
RSI Calculation:
The script calculates the 14-period RSI (default) using the closing price.
The user can modify the RSI period through an input setting.
Buy and Sell Signals:
A buy signal is triggered when RSI drops below 20 (indicating oversold conditions).
A sell signal is triggered when RSI rises above 80 (indicating overbought conditions).
Visual Representation:
Buy signals are marked with a green upward arrow (↑) below the price bars.
Sell signals are marked with a red downward arrow (↓) above the price bars.
The arrows help traders easily spot potential trade opportunities.
Usage:
This script is useful for traders looking to buy at oversold conditions and sell at overbought conditions based on RSI.
It works best when combined with other indicators or price action strategies to confirm signals.
Price and Volume Breakout - Jemmy TradeThe "Price and Volume Breakout" indicator is designed to identify potential breakout opportunities by analyzing both price and volume trends. It uses a combination of historical price highs, volume peaks, and a customizable Simple Moving Average (SMA) to signal bullish breakouts. When the price exceeds the highest price of the defined breakout period and is supported by high volume, the indicator triggers visual alerts on the chart. These include dotted lines, labels, and boxes highlighting accumulation zones, along with dynamically calculated stop loss and take profit levels.
Key Features:
• Breakout Detection: Compares the current closing price to the highest price and volume over specified periods to signal a breakout.
• Customizable Stop Loss Options: Offers three methods for setting stop loss levels:
o Below SMA: Positions stop loss a user-defined percentage below the SMA.
o Lowest Low: Uses the lowest low over a specific look-back period.
o Range Average: Calculates an average based on the previous price range.
• Dynamic Take Profit Calculation: Automatically computes take profit levels based on the defined risk-to-reward ratio.
• Visual Chart Elements: Draws breakout lines, stop loss and take profit indicators, labels (e.g., "🚀 Breakout Buy", "🔴 Stop Loss", "🟢 Take Profit"), and boxes marking accumulation zones for easy visualization.
• Alert Conditions: Includes alert functionality to notify traders when breakout conditions are met, enabling timely trading decisions.
How to Use:
1. Customization: Adjust settings such as the breakout periods for price and volume, the length of the SMA, stop loss options, and the risk-to-reward ratio to fit your trading strategy.
2. Signal Identification: When the price exceeds the highest value from the previous period, accompanied by high volume and confirmation from the SMA, the indicator displays a "Breakout Buy" signal.
3. Risk Management: The indicator calculates appropriate stop loss and take profit levels automatically based on your selected parameters, ensuring a balanced risk/reward setup.
4. Alerts: Utilize the built-in alert conditions to receive notifications whenever the breakout criteria are satisfied, helping you act promptly.
